“A work of art should exalt only those truths which are not demonstrable, and which are even 'false,' those which we cannot carry to their ultimate conclusions without negating both them and ourselves. They will never have the good or the bad fortune to be applied. Let them live by virtue of the song that they have become and that they inspire.” — Jan Ganett

“I don’t know what painting is; who knows what sets off even the desire to paint? It may be things, thoughts, a memory, sensations, which have nothing to do directly with painting itself. They can come from anything and anywhere, a trifle, some detail observed, wondered about and naturally from the previous painting. The painting is not on a surface, but on a plane which is imagined.” — Philip Guston
